When it comes to shopping for baby showers, I find it nearly impossible to stick to the registry. It's all so...practical. And that means the parents-to-be really need that stuff, but it's not nearly as fun to buy as itty bitty shoes or comfy cozy stuffed bunnies. So if you have the room in your budget, I suggest buying one of each: one thing off the registry and one thing that's just for fun, probably overpriced and frivolous, but so cute it makes you squee. That's my happy place; here's some suggestions I found!
- Bestever lamb baby mat, $50 at Bloomingdales.
- Aden + Anais "flying dog" sleep swaddle, $25.
- Peter Rabbit footed onesie, $30 at Gap.
- Striped lion jams, $18 at Gap.
- Knitted carrot rattle, $38 at J.Crew.
- Classic polka dot dress, $45 at Nordstrom.
- Minnetonka baby moccasins, $20 at J.Crew.
- Storage basket, $89 at Land of Nod.
- Honey Bunny handmade coat, $149 at Etsy.
- Knitted lamb mobile, $89 at Etsy.
- Star swaddle blankets, $50 for four.
- Stuffed plane, $30 at Sunday in Color.
- Mary Jane socks, $28 at Bloomingdales.
- Juicy Couture swimsuit, $51 (okay, really, that might be the dumbest investment on here, but it's SO CUTE.)

I love to make themed gift baskets for baby showers. I always buy several items from the registry and put them with something cute (and preferably monogrammed) from either fun local stores or Etsy.
Lovely ideas! Particularly like the carrot rattle, polka dot dress and too cute lamb rattle! Great blog btw :)
I have quite a few baby showers to go to in the next few months and have been searching for unique gifts! So glad I stumbled on your blog!
And congrats on the new little one! :) baby gift ideas
